Sky’s the limit for Ashok Aliseril, his family after they used Youtube videos to build aircraft in lockdown

0

Instead of doing meaningless things during the lockdown, a couple built a four-seater kit aircraft from scratch. The family now wants to use the plane to take their children on days out

38-year-old Ashok Aliseril and his wife cannot wait to take their two daughters out in a plane that they built when others were either getting bored or watching Netflix films during the lockdown. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed our lives on many levels, and we’ve spent the majority of the last two years at home baking bread or binge-watching Netflix.

Some were compelled to pursue a new hobby or learn a new language.

For this family, however, ambition knew no bounds as they spent their time tackling the difficult project of building a four-seater plane from the ground up.

This family desired a four-seater plane, so they built one.

Ashok Aliseril, his 35-year-old wife Abhilasha Dubey, 35, were determined not to be bored and instead spent their time in something more meaningful along with their daughters Tara, 6, and Diya, 3.

According to the  media, Ashok, a trained pilot, spent nearly two years building the plane with only the instruction manual and YouTube videos for guidance.

The 38-year-old engineer from Essex, England, and his wife Abhilasha had hoped to purchase an aircraft that could accommodate both them and their two young daughters. However, they were unable to locate a suitable option on the market.

The four-person family now has their own plane. As a result, Ashok decided to literally take matters into his own hands.

He discovered a kit plane that met their requirements and flew to South Africa to test fly it before ordering it and having it shipped to his backyard.

The components arrived in March 2020, just as the family was grounded by COVID.

So, instead of spending lockdown time making banana bread or diving headfirst into sourdough, the family built a plane.

Almost two years later, the result is a stunning red and silver machine with luxury seats and plenty of leg room.

The total cost of the project was reported to be £155,000. (Rs 1.57 crore).

The couple contributed to the project’s funding by saving money on school breakfast clubs, commuting, and socialising.

Abhilasha says, “There was literally no time to waste on the commute to get to the hangar after work – because it was right there in our back garden.”

So Ashok used to come out after work at 3 p.m. and stay until 9 p.m. The couple is now hoping to fly to the Isle of Wight for their summer vacation, while Ashok is hoping that the plane will help him get to Manchester United games.

New normal: Employees want to work from home after Covid-19

0

The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a major change in the workplace, making remote work the new normal. According to one poll, 82% of respondents said they want to work from home rather than return to the office.

According to the Tech Talent Outlook by employment site SCIKEY, the remote work trend was initially forced on employees owing to the pandemic, but after two years remote working has become a new normal and as things settled down, new habits have evolved.

According to the report, 82% of respondents prefer working from home to working in an office.

The Talent Tech Outlook 2022 report is based on an examination of feedback from more than 100 C-suite and human capital leaders from four continents, conducted by SCIKEY through surveys and social media.

According to the report, 64% of employees are more productive and less stressed when they work from home.

According to the report, the new normal for HR has switched from face-to-face interactions to interactions with distant employees who they meet only virtually the majority of the time.

According to the report, more than 80% of HR managers stated that hiring people for full-time office presence is becoming more difficult.

Work from home is no longer an option, but rather a new normal that every tech talent expects from their business, and firms who are unable to adapt will encounter difficulties in acquiring good talent and retaining those who are currently working, according to the study.

The tech workforce has discovered a new love with remote working, offering them independence and productivity that demands HR to be more trusting, it said, adding that disengaged or underutilised staff would find alternatives and leave faster than before the pandemic.

“It’s fascinating to see how the rapidly expanding ‘Future of Work’ is breaking free from the limits of traditional HR and transitioning into an ecosystem that now includes people beyond the confines of company payroll and office borders.

Welcome to the world of remote labour, the gig economy, and the power of the crowd, all of which are just waiting to be discovered before they erupt “Karunjit Kumar Dhir, the founder and CEO of SCIKEY, stated.

Technology is already rapidly changing the way businesses communicate with their people in order to achieve a deeper, more meaningful engagement that benefits everyone, he noted.

Meanwhile, the report discovered that only 18% of IT hiring managers plan to use psychological assessments as part of the hiring process in 2022, down from 68% in 2019.

Because remote is the new normal, offices will become more of an occasional gathering spot and alternate workplace, according to the study.

According to the report, more than 67% of organisations believe that hiring talent with office-only working circumstances has grown increasingly difficult.

Two years of remote working, on the other hand, has provided a sense of greater flexibility that benefits both businesses and employees, according to the report.

According to the report, more than 70% of HR and IT managers admitted that offering on-the-spot or short prizes for a job well done is more important to keep a staff that is dispersed and requires that “little” encouragement on a regular basis.

According to the report, more than 36% of respondents have already implemented rapid rewards as a model for engaging and retaining their brilliant personnel.

How Iqbal Thangal built Rs 5 cr offbeat business with used containers from Rs 3 lacs

In 2009, Iqbal Thangal founded Techno Cap Equipment Private Limited, a container home / office company. The business now clocks a turnover of Rs. 5 crore.

Iqbal Thangal produced candles and perfumes in Class 12 and sold them to shop owners, without getting paid for them. It was a great disappointment for the adolescent, who lost all of his savings in the small business he had founded. However, but the bad experience did not put out the zeal in him, and he continued to cultivate his ambition of becoming an entrepreneur.

At the age of 27, Iqbal invested Rs 3 lakh in an unusual endeavour involving the construction of living spaces, residences, offices, and even swimming pools out of repurposed freight containers, which has since developed into a Rs 5 crore turnover company, Techno Cap Equipment Private Limited, based in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.

Iqbal, “Our customers exist in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka and they range from corporations looking to construct labour quarters or temporary offices to individuals looking to construct a temporary house in their farmlands.” Since their inception in 2009, they have constructed approximately 300 offices, 100 farmhouses, 100 shops and restaurants, and approximately 20 swimming pools “The temporary container homes have their own advantages, the most important of which is that because it is a temporary structure, no permits are required.

Iqbal, 40, comes from Thrissur, Kerala, where he grew up in a middle-class home with three other siblings. Projects have been completed by Iqbal’s team in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala. While pursuing his MBA, Iqbal couldn’t pass up another opportunity to be an entrepreneur.

After his first year, he began a three-month internship at Ma Foi Management Consultants, a human resources firm in Cochin (now known as Kochi). By the end of his internship, Iqbal was so fired up that he decided to start his own consulting with two other classmates, but he left the company in 2008.” Soon later, the company was closed.

But everything changed for the better when Iqbal noticed the movement of cargo containers, during his visit to the port city of Kochi. It sparked the idea for container dwellings.

He subsequently relocated to Coimbatore, a city he was familiar with during his graduation, and established his company Techno Cap Equipment in October 2009. But the work was difficult, and he had to learn everything from the ground up. Things became problematic because the job required technical skills that he lacked.

“Because I didn’t have an engineering background, everything had to be learned on the job,” he explains. His first substantial order was from a postal delivery firm in Coimbatore, which required a vehicle to be outfitted with a cargo container.

Iqbal struggled to complete the task according to the client’s requirements and spent more money on the project than he had charged.

He says, “The client fought me about the delays, and the project cost me twice as much as I was paid. But I very much wanted o learn, and after a delay of two months, I delivered the container-mounted vehicle.”

As the days, months, and years passed, Iqbal honed his craft and began to take on increasingly difficult assignments.

The container homes and offices are outfitted with all of the modern facilities required for people to live in them.

Iqbal introduced container swimming pools in 2014. That was something new, which has piqued people’s interest,

“”A conventional 20-foot-by-8-foot swimming pool can cost roughly Rs 7.5 lakh,” he adds, adding, “We just erected the largest container pool in an international school in Kottayam, Kerala. It was 60 ft by 30 ft in dimension, which is nearly triple the size of a standard container.”

He claims that a container office can be built for Rs 6-12 lakh. A one-bedroom container home can cost between Rs 12 lakh and Rs 16.5 lakh, depending on the amenities included.

Despite the staggered periods of Covid shutdown, Iqbal had a successful fiscal year. Techno Cap Equipment clocked a turnover of Rs 5 crore, up from Rs 3 crore the prior year.

Iqbal Thangal, says, “Business was marginally higher as those with farmlands wanted to build a temporary house to stay in during the lockdown.”

Iqbal claims that prices have risen, and that a 20-foot container now costs roughly Rs 2 lakh, and a 40-foot container costs Rs 4.5 lakh.

Maneesh Media releases new book on PM Modi on Women’s Day; book is dedicated to the PM’s mother

0

The International Women’s Day 2022 has just been celebrated across the world to honor the remarkable hard work and achievements of women in every field. US-based Maneesh Media, celebrated the day by releasing a new book on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a significant and memorable event. 

There has been tremendous technological development in every field including the global book publishing industry and eBooks have become more popular than hardbacks. But, there is an old world charm about hard-covered books including coffee table books which are still our friends. Maneesh Media has so far presented 46 coffee table books to the world and added to that number by releasing a new publication called ‘India Calling 2022.’ 

PM Modi has made 113 international trips, visiting 62 countries as of March 2022, since he was initially elected in 2014.  Many books have been written about the Indian Premier. But, the new book from Maneesh Media is different from those books as it is focused on those 113 foreign trips of PM Modi and the outcome of those journeys. 

One of the highlights of ‘India Calling 2022’ is the Indian Prime Minister’s recent visit to America during which he met US President Joe Biden, and Vice President Kamala Harris.

The 525-page book was dedicated to PM Modi’s 102-year-old mother, Heeraben Modi, during an event hosted at Hotel Chicago Marriott Northwest on the occasion of International Woman’s Day 2022.

Of the 46 coffee table books that Maneesh Media has presented to the world so far, two publications were released by Former US President Bill Clinton when he visited India in the year 2000. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi also released two publications of Maneesh Media, one when he visited the US in 2014, and the other in 2016 when he went to Kenya. 

A life of dignity is the birthright of every woman. Empowered women contribute to the health and productivity of whole families and communities and improved prospects for the next generation. Maneesh Media gives importance to women’s empowerment as it is key to advancing the development of every country. Hence, during the event the company also acknowledged women’s empowerment by honoring and recognizing the significant efforts of women to make the world a better place to live in. Maneesh Media released the new book ‘India Calling 2022’ at the event by distributing it to 75 women. This was a mark of honor for the outstanding work these women have done in their respective fields. The women were also bestowed with the Azadi ka Amrut Mahotsav shawls to acknowledge their remarkable efforts and achievements. 

The partner in the event was Mrs. Santosh Kulshrestha Kumar, who serves as Founding Executive Director, of Metropolitan Asian Family, Chicago.  Mrs. Santosh Kumar is also known as the ‘Mother Teresa of Chicago’ for her commendable social services.  She is always present and dedicated to fulfill the needs of the downtrodden and serve the community. Mrs. Santosh Kumar has cooperated with Mr. Chandmal Kumawat, Chairman, Maneesh Media, for the event.

A media house with a difference, Maneesh Media, whose slogan and punch line is ‘Connecting Beyond Boundaries,’ is located in Jaipur, Canada and the US. The company was founded in 1999 in Jaipur, India, before it formed base in New York, USA. Maneesh Media consistently releases exclusive publications about successful Indians in India and abroad who have shown the courage to brave the stormy seas, venturing into the unknown in search of the calmer, more colorful, and soothing underwaters.

Just like the people he has honored through Maneesh Media’s books Mr. Chandmal Kumawat, the company’s chairman is also an inspiring person. He has an amazing story behind him. But, the most noteworthy thing about Mr. Chandmal is that he remains humble even after achieving so much success.

Mr. Chandmal began his career in a completely different profession, but always wanted to achieve something significant in life. That desire intensified over time, and he began to seek ideas to discover his true calling. Mr.Chandmal would listen to folks talk about how someone had become a big shot, how a well-known family had once dreamed big, and so on. Such anecdotes seemed to inspire him to keep going for a while. And then he told himself “Isn’t this what the world needed to learn and grow?”

Mr. Chandmal then took the initial move in 1999 by launching Rangeelo Rajasthan, a memento on the hotel sector to assist visitors to Jaipur. The plan was to make it easier for the many industry leaders to visit this city. It was a little step, but it was the first. And now, Maneesh Media has been around for more than 2 decades, during which period it has gained a wealth of experience, many inspirations, relationships, and memories.

Recently Times Applaud, the global PR distribution network, in collaboration with Namaste Bahrain honoured such 26 Indian women for the brilliant work in their respective field whether it is Real Estate, Beauty industry, Health Care, Education, Start-Ups, Designs, Entertainment, Fashion, Hospitality, Social Work, etc. 

Rehnuma Khan, the country’s leading makeup artist is also one of these 26 amazing ladies and it was once again proved that you just need to be true towards your passion and recognition will certainly come to you. She was awarded with the Women Iconza Award 2022 for being the iconic makeup artist and entrepreneur. 

The Mumbai-based beautiful yet simple girl was very much interested in makeup and products related to it from a very young age and she was quite determined to make her career in this field only which she did as well. Being a girl, she was aware of the importance of beauty especially for girls in this modern day world but while doing makeup of other girls, she realized that majority of them were suffering from skin issues and makeup was just a blanket to cover them up. She decided to do something about it and started working on creating a new cream for this purpose. She created many products by mixing some really very effective ingredients but wasn’t able to achieve the desired result for a long time. Eventually, she achieved success in creating a cream which has the capability to transform dark complexion into fair and it is also pretty helpful in getting rid of blackheads, black spots, pimples, wrinkles and signs of aging. The cream which has been named as Khushi Whitening Cream has proven to be very effective in making the skin glow and has brought happiness in lives of many people. Khushi Whitening Cream can be used by both men and women and it comes in two variants – for face and for body. Rehnuma Khan and her cream have become very popular both at national and international level because there are many Asians residing in the western countries and it is being said by many experts that she is all set to rule the industry just like the beauty expert Shahnaz Husain did in the past with her beauty products.

Rehnuma Khan draws inspiration from the Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan and the effect is visible in her fashion sense and styling. Those who know Rehnuma pretty well say that there are many similarities between her and the actress. 

Rehnuma Khan is a humanitarian as well along with being an entrepreneur, she conducts makeup classes and teaches the art of makeup to many of her students free of cost, especially to those women who have nobody to support in life and have faced a lot of suffering. She not only helps her students in setting up their business but also promotes them despite being from the same industry and this certainly speaks high of her confidence and attitude. If this is not enough, she also helps small business owners from various industries by promoting their businesses on her social media pages which have a huge fan following but only after ensuring that she is promoting the right product and company. She doesn’t charge a single penny for promoting these small businesses because she just wants to help more and more people and play a role in changing their lives for better. 

Rehnuma Khan is followed by more than 141K people on her Instagram account (@makeupbyrehnumakhan) and she regularly posts videos related to updates about her cream and also about tips on makeup, styling and proper way to use different products.

Congrats Rehnuma Khan! Keep doing the good work!
